Richmond Hill The York County Federation of Agriculture met at Woodbridge on March 21 to present a brief to Major Alex MacKenzie, M.P.P.. regarding the imminent legislation in the house regarding the sale of edible oils in Ontario. The brief stated there were 106,000 dairy farmers in Ontario, 1400 process- ing plants which employ 2300 peo- ple. The retail value of the dairy products produced in Ontario is approximately $3,000,000. Ab- out 45% of this amount is receiv- ed by those other than farm peop- le.ln countries that allow vege- table oils to compete with dairy products the sale of dairy pro- ducts has been reduced 50%. Should this happen in Ontario, it is estimated that 14% of Ontario labor would be affected. Any sav- ing to the consumer by substitut- ing dairy products would be more The winner of the Floyd Perkins trophy for prepared speeches in grades 7 and 8 was Sandra Koning followed by Carol Mansbridge and Donald Large who each received a book as a prize.

The speeches were all of a high calibre and the judges, Miss Edna Izzard and Ian Smith, both members of the High School Staff and Principal McWhirter of Concord School, had a most difficult time to come to a decis- ion, despite the large number of entrants. Judges Have Difficult Time To Award Public Speaking Prizes The best off-season activity for a budding hockey star is, with out a doubt, track and field, especially the “short sprints†and broad jumps. These events will develop more of that allâ€"important leg drive â€" that “drive†that every hockey player needs. Such run- ning events as the half mile and mile will help you to improve your general “condition†and stamina and will train you to force yourself to greater effort, a habit every athlete should develop but one that few have developed. Yes, regular track and field activity all through the summer will do a great deal to help your hockey. Even if you don’t do very well in actual competition, your efforts will still be worthwhile because of the great training your body will Off Season Sports For Hockey Playes Few hockey players realize just how much’ they can help improve their hockey skill by playing the right kind of games and taking part in the right kind of activities in the summer and fall. So, if hockey is your big game and you are especially anxious to do all you can to develop more skill, make "sure you follow the listed suggestions carefully. First, ‘you should realize that if you do play the right games and take part in the right activities, you will im- prove your hockey because you will be developing the same mus- cles and types of co-ordination and movement that you use in hockey. Then. too, you will be building up a “condition†that will carry you through your next hoc- key season with greater power and stamina than ever before. You will get into shape for hockey sooner and with greater ease when next season gets underway and you will tire less easily all during the season. Participation in any sport is good for your hockey, of course, but there are some games and activities that are especially helpful. R.H.P.S.

The opinions expressed follow- ing the reading of the brief were as follows: They felt that with the dairy produce in plentiful suppyl and that in comparing dairy pro- duce prices with other commodity prices that dairy produce prices were reasonable. It was stated that conservations and fertility of our soil depends on our farm livestock and to reduce our cattle popula- tion could be disastrous to our ec- onomy. The question was asked why there were no names attached to the publicity put out by the edible oil institute; any requests the farm people make are always signed by names. The evening was featured by a selections by the school “Festival†choir under the direction of Mr. Johnston. This choral group will compete at a later date in the Woodbridge Festival. At the com- pletion of the speeches, the Chair- man, Trustee S. Tinker congratu- lated the pupils on their effort. Mr. Tinker, who was recently elect- ed to the position of Trustee, was chairman in the absence of Chair- man James Pollard.

Smoking throws an extra load on your heart and lungs and thus interferes with the job they are trying to do on your recovery. \It also shrinks the blood vessels which means your circulation will not be as efficient as it needs to be to do a good job in the recov- ery process. In other words, smoking directly after hard effort delays recovery because it throws a further load on the body. These suggestions will really go a long way in helping you improve your hockey. Try them and see for yourself how much they will help you. Why Smoking Affects Recovery get. Other good games for a hockey player to play are tennis, soccer and lacrosse. All these games increase your co-ordination and balance things which are all- important to the hockey player. If you are a goalkeeper, you should play lots of table tennis, badmin- ton or handball. as these. games demand quick action of hand and foot and will train your eye and improve your power of closer con- centration.

Bowen Elected President Of Local Pigeon Racing Club Lake Wilcox Bowling That doesn’t merely mean that you should not work all his arith- metic problems for him. It also means that you should~ discourage SET HIM FREE. A child’s brain needs training in ' independence. He cannot look to you for answers forever, and you should start a campaign to let him think for him- self early. There is no‘simpie formula, but here arer some pointers: It is not so difficult as you might think to make a child want to stu- dy. Remember how, as a bright- eyed youngster of 5 or 6, he de- lighted in every new experience, in each scrap of information that came his way?' An older child can retain that same approach to learn- ing if you do your part. If th3't kind of activity is to take place in your youngster’s mind, he must ï¬rst want to learn, to ex- plore, to experiment. There is where your biggest opportunity lies. ’ Studying is independent thinking on a set of facts. It is his ques- tioning those facts, weighing them, ï¬tting them into familiar situa- tions, comparing them with other knowledge. It is mastering new words ,new ideas, so that they no longer belong to some text-book writer but become the child’s own. It is doing these things on the schedule required by his school program. Studying is more than sitting £01- a given length of time with an pen book. It is not just reading, either, nor is it working a few ar- ithmetic problems by a formula the youngster copies from a book one night and forgets the next day. THE PROBLEM goes a lot deep- er than your winning the nightly tussle to pry him away from the TV set â€" although your victory in that matter is, of course, essential. And don't think his teachers can carry the ball alone. Even though he is getting instruction on how to study in school, it doesn‘t fol- low that he will continue to prac- ticg good study habits at home . . . HELP YOUR CHILD LEARN TO STUDY Part I â€" The Problem of Home Study You may be resigned to worry- ing along with that old mind of yours â€" a mind that makes you consult notes in a conference be- cause it refuses to retain speciï¬c facts, makes you carry closely written ï¬le cards when you make a speech, makes you read at a snail’s pace in order to master inâ€" formation. But your child need not be so handicapped. Not. at least. if ydu take the trouble now to see that he learns to study.

There will be nights when the last showing of a “must†movie clashes with home work. Sure, you’ll have to get tough occasionally. But if your child normally does his work well, makes good grades and asks special favours infrequently, you can feel safe in making ex- ceptions to regular rules. â€"Condensed_ by permission from CHANGING TIMES, the Kiglinger Magazine. Part7 II -â€"'A Programme for Home Study (to follow). By high-school time your young- ster will probably be starting to think about a career. Then you have a ready-made motive for study. It doesn’t matter that he vacillates from one fascinating ï¬eld to another. In the process he will test out on himself all the roles that appeal to him. Besides, 'ie will pick up a lot of informa- tion along the way. All youngsters have curiosity â€" plenty of it. Keep that curios- ity alive as the child grows older by helping him relate the seem- ingly dry facts he must absorb In school to the really interesting things he sees around him . . . The really good reason, which makes sense and which will ap- oeal to a youngster. is that study- ing is a tool for ï¬nding out about things that interest him. ‘ him from accepting new ‘ideas blindly. Guide him into explor- ing a bit deeper and working out as many of his own answers as he can. Studying is necessarily a lonely business, and if he is to learn, he must be able to do it alone. GIVE HIM A MOTIVE. Probab- ly many a child has the distinct impression that he is studying so His parents can be proud of his re- oort cards or so he can act like a “quizz kid" when the neighbours drop in. But those aren't very good reasons from anybody’s point of view.
